Customer Reviews
open for interpretation
This could be a great podcast. The subject matter is great and the artists are top drawer. The one drawback is that you don't hear the questions being asked so it sounds sometimes like a string of unconnected ramblings. Still that shouldn't disuaded you from subscribing, it's till worth getting the feed.
A peek behind the scenes
This is a really great way to find out what musicians are thinking when they work on new music. All the people featured are extremely personable and their responses are so open an honest that it makes you feel like you could be friends with all of them.
